The Video Gamer’s Experience Interview – RD Lee

In this next evolution of “The Video Gamer’s Experience” I turn to you, the gamer, to find out what makes you tick when it comes to this entertainment medium based on interactivity, technological boundaries being obliterated, and emotional moments shared by thousands of people across the globe. Today’s interviewee: Randy “RD” Lee.

What’s the first game you remember playing?

Super Mario Brothers 2

When did you realize you were a gamer?

When, as a child, I ripped out a loose tooth for the neighbor when he said he’d give me his Atari if I did it while he was at our house.

Is there one story in your life that was directly impacted by a game?

Most of the successes and life-long friendships I’ve made as an adult were because of video games. Gears of War stands out because it was a magical time. Also, I met one of my very best friends because of our mutual love of Final Fantasy 7 in High School.
